Kaposiform Lymphangiomatosis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Kaposiform lymphangiomatosis is an uncommon generalized lymphatic anomaly with distinctive clinical, radiologic, histopathologic, and molecular findings. Herein, we document the pathology in 43 patients evaluated by the Boston Children's Hospital Vascular Anomalies Center from 1999 to 2020. The most frequent presentations were respiratory difficulty, hemostatic abnormalities, and a soft tissue mass. Imaging commonly revealed involvement of some combination of mediastinal, pulmonary, pleural, and pericardial compartments and most often included spleen and skeleton. Histopathology was characterized by dilated, redundant, and abnormally configured lymphatic channels typically accompanied by dispersed clusters of variably canalized, and often hemosiderotic, spindled lymphatic endothelial cells that were immunopositive for D2-40, PROX1, and CD31. An activating lesional NRAS variant was documented in 9 of 10 patients. The clinical course was typically aggressive, marked by hemorrhage, thrombocytopenia, diminished fibrinogen levels, and a mortality rate of 21%.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
